Comedogenic is a 0–5 pore-clogging likelihood — a contested measure, take it lightly. No marker = unremarkable or not yet researched — we never fake a rating.
Prices and availability come from each retailer — they may differ from the average above.
Cheaper picks and higher-rated alternatives that share the same actives — better picks first.
In label order — earlier usually means more of it. Highlighted names are the evidence-backed actives.
